"For years, I’ve watched the barriers my patients face in accessing the treatments I prescribe continue to grow." Read about the Safe Step Act and how it can help get patients the medicines they need. nola.com/opinions/lette…
"This year, copay accumulators have come to the forefront of my awareness. I’d heard the term, but it wasn’t until my 2023 plan had such a program that I realized how it affected my pocketbook. It’s no joke." Learn more: hemophilianewstoday.com/columns/naviga…
Thank you @SenTomWright and @LindsayCrossFL for championing #SB228 and #HB363. The bills look to ban copay accumulator programs, and would increase patient access to medicine and lower out-of-pocket costs. floridapolitics.com/archives/64511…
A U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. just removed a major obstacle to healthcare affordability. If you use copay assistance to help afford your medicine, these payments will now count toward your health insurance deductible. Learn more: miamiherald.com/news/nation-wo…
"If you are not on an effective medication, there can be unseen damage going on in your brain. And you're not going to get that back." Learn more about the damage caused by step therapy protocols from @MS_Focus' Kasey Minnis on The @JaniceDean Podcast. radio.foxnews.com/podcast/the-ja…
The dominance of pharmacy benefit managers affects all of Louisiana's patients, especially those in rural parishes. Patients in Cottonport, Mangham, Bentley, Ball, Basile, Campti, Folsom, and Delcambre parishes may have to look for a new pharmacy. cutt.ly/P9EGzJz
Step therapy protocol comes between you and the guidance of your health care provider. cutt.ly/0Xj8F1G
"A 98-year old man was forced to have three shots in his eyes that weren't doing anything before they would even consider using medication that the doctor wanted to use in the first place." Learn more about Jack's step therapy story: cutt.ly/rXj80SD
"Copay assistance is a vital resource for consumers who are struggling to make ends meet and manage a serious, often life-threatening disease. Congress should move quickly to provide this relief by protecting copay assistance at the pharmacy." cutt.ly/gZThoQj
Copay accumulator programs create barriers to care. Over 80% of patients who use copay assistance can't afford their medicine without it, yet these same patients are being penalized for it. cutt.ly/DZTgVin
Over 200 patient, provider, and health care organizations sent a letter to the U.S. Senate in support of the Pharmacy Benefit Manager Transparency Act of 2022. Read more: cutt.ly/wZpFUmd
"The @FTC should delve into how pharmacy benefit managers are impacting and fueling drug prices and set up guardrails to protect Americans." Learn more from @oncologyCOA: cutt.ly/BZpGxSE
Step therapy "one-size-fits-all care may leave Parkinson's patients with worsening symptoms and a deteriorating quality of life." cutt.ly/PLCZ4dv
Help advocate for patient access by asking Congress to support the Safe Step Act. The Act would reform step therapy protocols, which restrict patient access to prescriptions. cutt.ly/GLCZQpf
"You may be familiar with copay cards. However, you might not be familiar with copay accumulator programs." Learn more about a policy that affects prescription affordability for patients: cutt.ly/iLcWHR2
Patients deserve to use copay assistance without the sacrifice of building toward their insurance deductibles. Act now to help ensure lower out-of-pocket prescription costs: cutt.ly/nLcEz53
"Americans are paying too much for generic drugs due to a payment system that is manipulated by PBMs." cutt.ly/6Lo8GRp
The @FTC says that pharmacy benefit managers increase patient drug costs and suppress industry competition. This affects the wallets and health of patients like you. cutt.ly/fLo561b
A one size fits all approach doesn't work well for medicine. @patientaccess explains why: cutt.ly/pKHcxP5
“I believe that, had I gotten the right medication sooner, I could have prevented all these complications." Discover how step therapy protocols harm patients from @EverydayHealth: cutt.ly/DKHxMhI
